"Let me tell you my opinion on Akron vet! Not only do they meet your needs with your animals but they take the time to really explain what's going on. I also lost my boxer and Dr really tried to help me with saving him. If it wasn't for them working with me financially I wouldnt be able to afford any of the care needed! Dr Van't Hof is wonderful!!! Thank you and the vet staff for everything!!!"
